Problem with submission

Hi,

I'm new to orbeon and XForms in general.

I had to build some forms that generate xml output, so i thought orbeon would be the best option.
but i'm having a problem that i cannot figure out:

I've 8 different forms, that generate 8 different output files (well, not files actually, i save them in eXist). The problem is that i want to work with only one big xml file. So im looking forward to save all the forms output in only one big xml eXist entry (each one in a different node of the xml structure). Is this possible?

i've tried using target attribute in the xforms:submission, but it didn't work.

 any idea? thanks in advance!

PD: sory for my english!

Hi,

I am looking for a powerful XForm builder to create simple XFroms
without programming.
I got very excited seeing the screencast of the Orbeon Form Builder.
But trying to make me first steps, i am having some problems :-( using
Orbeon Forms 3.7.1 (Developer Release)

1.
I tried to make my own forms on different computers now, but always get
Java heap space Errors after a few clicks even if i set the
CATALINA_OPTS="-server -Xmx1024m" in catalina.bat.
Orbeon Form Builder seems to be very slow in general - is that normal
or are there other settings i can try?

2.
Beeing ob your Mailing List reading the mails and looking at the source
code of the examples I start to doubt, that I can create XFroms based on
my own XML Schemas without editing the generated code at all. Is that
right?
What I try to do is an XForm, based on my own XSD. The form should show
data I already have in a XML.
Is there any example I can load in the form builder?

Thanks you so much for you help :-)

Karolin

Karolin,

For point one below, related to java heap space,
I modified JAVA_OPTS in Catalina.bat with additional parameter –Xms256m –Xmx512,
It worked for me, can try for yourself.

Cheers
Praveen

Karolin,

WIth a 1GB heap, you should certainly not get such out of memory errors.

1. It could be that your setting is not taken into account (that
happens to the best of us!).
2. Are those permgen errors? If so, try -XX:MaxPermSize=128m or greater value.

We are aware of slowness with Form Builder and we are working on it.
Also we recommend you use a "modern" browser as client (which means
non-IE).

Currently Form Builder produces its own data structure:

http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/user-guide/form-builder-user-guide#TOC-Advanced:-XML-representation-of-for

If you want to use your own schema, you will have to write some custom
code to perform transformations. This could be done in a custom
persistence layer. We would like to have enhanced support for this in
Form Builder, but that will likely depend on customers sponsoring the
feature.

Hello Erik,

I want to pick up my question from 2 years ago about designing xForms based on a given XSD.
Every xForm I want to design has a different XSD.

Do you have any news, is something done already or in the pipeline?

Thank you for your answer,

Karolin

Karolin,

We still don't have an XSD-to-XForms tool.

However, there is a new feature in nightly builds: you can now specify
your own custom XML format into Form Builder. This requires you to
then manually bind every control to that custom XML with XPath
expressions.

Hey Erik,

thanks for your quick answer.

I tested the latest nightly build.
It doesn't work like I expected. For example my custom XML changed by adding or renaming controls.

Do you have more informations about the project, except this I found:
https://sites.google.com/a/orbeon.com/forms/projects/form-runner-builder/form-builder-custom-xml


Cheers, Karolin

Karolin,

There might still be bugs! This part of Form Builder is undergoing a
pretty big rewrite at this time anyway.

But basically the plan is that adding/renaming controls must not
modify your custom XML.
